Central Oregon Irrigation Ditches To Redeem Rich Lands
Central Oregon will see large tracts reclaimed under Carey Act contracts as ditch projects near Bend Deschutes and Prineville begin. The Pilot Butte Development Company starts an 87000 acre canal system while other firms prepare water delivery on 200000 acres of Deschutes timber belt. A rail line from Shaniko to Bend is seen as likely to grow with the region’s booming timber and agricultural activity.
